A DEEP SPACE PERFORMANCE RESIDENCY

My Evil Wife
From the creators: “Set in the fictional town of Notting Hell, My Evil Wife is a song-and-dance-filled play-presentation based on a strange (and true!) incident we experienced while on vacation involving an angry man, a carton of eggs, and two women in leather jackets. Then, we split. From reality, from ourselves, from the story we’re telling.
We will be presenting a short section of the play and a memory experiment with rewards.”
“Joyously, shambolically silly”
